"....therefore, the Court finds Defendant Mitchell has an above-average ability to understand the nature and consequences of the court proceedings against him. However, the court finds, based on the report, the information present in the file in this matter, and the Court's observation of Defendant's remarks, behavior and demeanor in the courtroom, and pursuant to 18 U.S.C. 4241(d), there is abundant evidence Defendant suffers from a mental disorder, namely Delusional Disorder, Mixed Type evidencing symptoms related to both Grandiose and Persecutory Types. It is the Court's conclusion that this mental disorder, combined with narcissistic traits substantially impairs Defendant's ability to represent himself or to assist counsel in his defense."
